Hi Joe,
The best solution I could come up with is like this:
<div class="blogdate">
<span class="blogauthor"><%# FormatPostAuthor(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name").ToString())%></span>
<span class="bdate"><%# DateTimeHelper.GetTimeZoneAdjustedDateTimeString(((System.Data.Common.DbDataRecord)Container.DataItem),"StartDate", TimeOffset, BlogDateTimeFormat) %></span>
</div>
I could not just move it out of the <div class="blogdate"> because this would break layout in all existing skins by moving the data to a different line than the author name. I could potentially have fixed it in included skins but it would still affect all skins in the wild.
Best,
Joe
